Vinyl Chloride Production Cost | Q4 2024

Updated Reports Examining Vinyl Chloride Manufacturing Costs

Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Vinyl Chloride production costs. Each Intratec Commodity Production Cost report listed below is a comprehensive study of a specific Vinyl Chloride production process and related Vinyl Chloride production costs, covering three key aspects:

  • A complete description of the Vinyl Chloride production process examined
  • An in-depth analysis of the related Vinyl Chloride plant capital cost (Capex)
  • An evaluation of the respective Vinyl Chloride plant operating costs (Opex)

All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q4 2024).

Vinyl Chloride Production from Ethylene Dichloride

This report presents the economics of Vinyl Chloride production from ethylene dichloride (EDC) in the United States using a typical thermal cracking process. In the process under analysis, EDC is thermally cracked to produce Vinyl Chloride, also generating hydrogen chloride as a by-product.

Details: 500 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue A   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 500 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Vinyl Chloride Production from Ethane and Chlorine

This study reviews the costs associated with Vinyl Chloride production directly from ethane and chlorine. The process examined is an early stage process similar to that developed by European Vinyls Corporation, now owned by INEOS. The process is a direct ethane to vinyl chloride monomer route. The economic assessment assumes an industrial plant in the United States.

Details: 500 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue B   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 500 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Vinyl Chloride Production from Acetylene

This feasibility study reviews a typical hydrochlorination process for Vinyl Chloride production from acetylene. In this process, anhydrous hydrogen chloride is reacted in vapor phase with acetylene over a mercuric chloride catalyst producing Vinyl Chloride. The economic analysis presented is based on the construction of an industrial plant in the United States.

Details: 280 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue C   From $799 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 280 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Vinyl Chloride from Ethylene and Chlorine (Balanced Process)

This study presents the economics of Vinyl Chloride (VCM) production from ethylene and chlorine in the United States. Initially, ethylene is chlorinated to produce ethylene dichloride (EDC). Then, EDC is thermally cracked yielding VCM and HCl. The HCl produced and ethylene are reacted with oxygen, yielding more EDC. This leads to a so called “balanced process”.

Details: 500 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue D   From $1,499 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 500 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Vinyl Chloride Production from Ethylene and EDC

This report presents the production cost of Vinyl Chloride from ethylene and ethylene dichloride (EDC) in the United States. The process examined combines two process. First, Vinyl Chloride is produced via thermal cracking of EDC, which generates hydrogen chloride (HCl). It is then used as raw material with ethylene in the EDC production via oxychlorination.

Details: 500 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue E   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 500 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.

Vinyl Chloride from Ethylene and Chlorine (By-Product: HCl)

This study approaches a detailed cost analysis of Vinyl Chloride (VCM) production from ethylene and chlorine as raw materials. Initially, ethylene is chlorinated to produce ethylene dichloride (EDC). Then, EDC is thermally cracked yielding VCM. The economic analysis presented assumes a plant located in the United States.

Details: 500 kta United States-based plant   |   Q4 2024   |   107 pages   |   Issue F   From $1,199 USD

The cost analyses presented in this report target a 500 kta (kilo metric ton per annum per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
